I never had the fortune of meeting Doorkins and only learned about her today. I watched the dignified funeral delivered by those who loved her, and she in turned loved. Thank you dear girl for the gift of your storied life.

Rest very well and know that you made a difference including those that never met you.

And thank you to the kindly clergy, staff and volunteers at Southwark Cathedral for demonstrating that all creatures great and small deserve love. They are, after all, our fellow animals.
